NovelAppTears were on the brink of spilling from Nichole’s eyes, but this time, Jomes was determined not to soften his heart “You should know the rules at Eastwood College. If your grades slip like this again and you fail to make the top ten in the department. you will lose your scholarship and will have to pay the full tuition yourself” Nichole had always been aware of this rule, but she never imagined these words would come from Jamnes Stunned. Nichole stated at James, momentarily lost for words.
James’ message was clear if her grades continued to fall, he would no longer help her, nor would he assist her in staying at Eastwood College. She would have to bear all expenses herself.
“Mr. Burke, I'm sorry. It won't happen again, Nichole quickly capitulated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCurrently, all of Nichole’s expenses at Eastwood College were charged to James’ account, and on top of that, James provided
her with a monthly allowance of $3,000 so she didn't need to work and could focus on her studies.
However, losing this support meant she would have to find a job. The tuition fees at Eastwood College were exorbitantly high. There was an annual tuition of $90,000, and with housing and other miscellaneous fees, the total cost per year was $120,000.
She could never eam that much money on her own, “Good that you understand” James said, diverting his gaze. “Go back now. Study hard. If the grades in next month's exams are still unsatisfactory, you'll have to figure things out yourself.” Nichole got out of the cat her expression dazed. She couldn't bear to think about surviving without James' support.
James" car pulled up to the entrance of Eastwood College.
Through the car window, he could see the upscale residential area across the street “Stop here.”
Colt halted the car and asked, “Mr. Burke, are you going to see Mrs. Burke?” From the rearview minor, James gave Colt a sharp glance, silencing him immediately.
James noticed that the lights were still on in the apartment as he dialed Sophie’s number.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe phone rang several times before it was answered. Sophie was silent for a moment before asking. “What's up?” “Been away from home for a few days now? James spoke calmly, his tone slightly discontented.
“Ive had classes. | told you the day before yesterday.” James adjusted his tie, feeling somewhat stifled. “So that's why you've been out of touch for three days?” “I have classes, and besides, you've been busy.” “Starting tomorrow, keep me updated in real time about what you're doing.” “What?” “And go to bed early” Without giving Sophie a chance to speak,
James ended the call.
“Hello? Hello?” Frowning, Sophie stared at her disconnected phone, utterly perplexed.
“What's up? Your busband calling?” Jenna sat in the living room, eating pizza. Even with her makeup removed, she was still stunningly beautiful.
Since the day Colby introduced her to Jenna, the two had become fast friends. Though it was only their second meeting, over the past three days, they had become gossip sisters, sharing everything over texts.
“James is acting weird, telling me to report everything | do to him starting tomorrow.” Sophie shook her head. The old James never cared about what she was doing. His sudden demand today was completely baffling “He must suspect you've got another men. Such a petty man is not worth marrying.” Jenna wiped her mouth and said, “Just
dump him, and marry someone else.” “And marry who?” “I think my cousin's a catch. Why don't you two give it a try?”
